#数字货币市场回升 Is there really no way out for small funds in the crypto market? This may be the biggest cognitive bias.



Every day there are people complaining that their capital is too small to get started, but to be honest, what's really holding you back is not the thickness of your wallet, but the outdated operational logic in your mind. If getting rich quickly could only rely on throwing money at it, how would those early Bitcoin players explain their success?

Taking an example of a principal of 1000U, how do you plan to turn it into 10000U?

The All-in faction will tell you: find a potential coin, use 10x leverage and go for it directly. It sounds thrilling, but in essence, it's like betting on red or black at a casino; if you win, you feast, and if you lose, you don't even get soup.

There is another way - rolling positions.

The core of this approach is not to pursue a single large profit, but to break the goal down and slowly nibble at it. For example, if you want to grow from 1000U to 3000U, it's better to go through three stages, steadily earning 300 to 500U of profit at each stage. After completing a round, split the money earned into two parts: one part is locked in a safe, and the remaining continues to participate in the battle.

I have seen many traders before, starting with a capital of only eight or nine hundred U. When placing orders, they are very hesitant, even reluctant to set stop-loss lines. Later, they adjusted their strategy: taking small steps quickly, securing profits, and cutting losses in a timely manner. Although the account growth rate is as slow as a snail climbing a tree, it's steady — it won't directly lead to liquidation due to one mistake, and the compound interest effect gradually becomes apparent.

Real masters of rolling positions understand one principle: large positions maintain the basic level, small positions are flexible and mobile, and secondary positions are specifically used to lock in profits and prevent drawdowns. It's not about making big profits on every trade, but ensuring the direction is not outrageous, minor losses can be made up in time, and the money earned can truly stay in hand.

So stop complaining about having a small principal; a small amount of capital is actually more suitable for practice. Don't always think about getting rich overnight; first, establish a solid trading system and build a strong foundation. When the day comes that your account really starts to grow, you will thank that patient version of yourself who took the time to improve.

This rollover trap is indeed much more reliable than going all in, and even small amounts can have a chance for a turnaround. The key is still to endure the loneliness; many people fail because they are obsessed with the idea of getting rich quickly.

You're right, with small capital you have to play with compound interest, going all in will eventually get liquidated.

Rolling to build a position sounds good, but the key is to survive long enough and not get liquidated by one or two market waves.

Rolling to build a position sounds good, but no one can stick to it. Most people still want to go all in.

To be honest, I really can't see how this rollover trap can be stable; it still relies on betting in the right direction.

You're right, that's the point. It's actually easier to develop good habits with small amounts of money.
